I’m not much of a hardware person but I was wondering why not do the opposite? Pair a massive amount of SRAM/DRAM with a normal cpu as l2+ cache. Or is that what they are essentially doing?
- vvanders 7y agoSRAM and DRAM are two totally different things. An L2 cache is just a huge chunk of SRAM, they take more die space and use a lot more power at the benefit of running with lower latency.
